If there is a problem in the design or functionality of the gLS then 
perhaps its time to start letting myself or the current maintainer of 
the Java API know.  I have not received any bug reports or other forms 
of feedback for months; this is not helpful if the service is going to 
get any better.

We should address problems instead of ignoring them - the MA.conf 
solution is not a scalable or workable solution if we are to get 
adoption in this framework.
